Answer:

Mathew Arnold describes Percy Bysshe Shelley as “A beautiful and ineffectual angel”.

Explanation:  

“P.B. Shelley” was one of the major “English romantic poets”, who are well known for his finer lyrics in his poems. He is considered as the epic poet of 19th century. Though his poetries and prose pieces remained steady throughout ‘his life’, most of his works were declined by publishers and journals for ‘fear’ of being ‘arrested’ for either “blasphemy or sedition”.  

Though Shelley did not taste the success and fame during his life time, his poetic achievements steadily grew after his death. Hence, he was described as “An ineffectual and beautiful angel” by Mathew Arnold.
